Background technology of the present invention and related application see quoting
This application claims the U.S. Provisional Application sequence No.61/693 enjoying and submitting on August 27th, 2012, the preceence of 664.This CO-PENDING application is hereby all to introduce its content see mode and to be formed a application's part, and the application includes but not limited to hereafter concrete those parts occurred.
Technical field of the present invention
The present invention relates to the container carrier for the container integration by needing quantity.
The description of prior art
Container carrier connects two or more containers to become the firmly integrative packaged design of container or multiple multi-pack.Carrier is the planar array of ring substantially, and sometimes referred to as " six packaging carriers ", it is formed by thermoplastic sheets usually.Carrier is used for the container of sizes and shape.
Common container carrier is integrated through being usually used in the container of multiple similar size, such as tank, bottle, wide-mouth bottle and box, but also may be used for integration other packaging or container.Two this type of Common containers carriers are exactly plastic hoop carrier and box carrier.
The integrative packaged design that plastic hoop carrier uses little material and produces for container.But when it is used alone, plastic hoop carrier has little or does not have advertisement or promotion printing space.On the contrary, box carrier has the relatively large region for promotional graphics usually.Adversely, box carrier needs relatively many materials, if box carrier does not remain on stand up position, box carrier just allows bottle to drop out, and box carrier covers the mass part of actual container usually.Therefore, there are the needs of the packaging merging the stability of ring carrier and the promotional of economy and box carrier.
The present invention relates to for the carrier by multiple container integration, described carrier has multiple container receiving hole, and described multiple container receiving hole configures with comprising together with the panel of one of removable novelty article and/or handle.
Summary of the invention
Container carrier according to the present invention carries multiple container, such as tank or bottle.Carrier comprises the sheet material of the preferably plastics of the plane be shaped together with multiple container receiving hole.Container receiving hole is formed in lengthwise rows with on laterally arranging.
Panel preferably with sheet integral be shaped, stretch out from the face plate edge of sheet material to make panel.At least one during panel is preferably formed as and passes on name of product, properties of product, the shape of sales promotion, trade mark, trade name, alpha-numeric character, symbol and/or be intended to cause the unusual design noted product.In addition, eyelet or similar weak line preferably along panel place with allow to remove panel at least partially for reusing.
Alternatively, or in addition, at least one during the handle of separation can be configured to pass on name of product, properties of product, the shape of sales promotion, trade mark, trade name, alpha-numeric character, symbol equally and/or be intended to cause the unusual design noted product.Alternatively, or in addition, the handle of this separation can be configured to equally for removing or reusing.
Further, handle can form with panel, and can be configured to equally to pass on name of product, properties of product, the shape of sales promotion, trade mark, trade name, alpha-numeric character, symbol and/or be intended to cause at least one in the unusual design noted product.Further, the handle of this one and panel can be configured to equally for removing and reusing.
Container is placed in each container receiving hole to form packaging, and packaging has significant relative to packaging and for appreciiable panel and/or handle client, and its stylized shapes highlights the expection image of product like this.This kind of configuration of panel and/or handle creates container package, container package have for the significant display area of advertisement, information, image and other marketing material or " bulletin board " and have to client have some value addeds with present for removing and reusing.Thisly can comprise wrist strap, bookmark, decorative fitting and/or similar ornamental and/or functional article with present.
